I couldn't find the side-by-side, but here's the Fray axe.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Then she was talking about the original in the comic. She said it was designed to be a lot of weapons-- I assumed it was the Art Department. My Bad. However she did say something funny. When they saw the shiny scythe one of the writers said "so it's made of some ancient metal?" and another said "Yeah, like aluminum."

The curved blade part of it is sort of a mini-scythe (sickle?) - kinda, sorta. Ah, hell. I don't care.

"Yeah, like aluminum."
Hee! It's funny 'cause it's true!
t edit Though you'd think that there would exist some sort of insti-tarnish and that they would have used a bucket of it.

No, cause it's magic and it repels all ickiness, like dirt and blood (and possibly the black stuff dripping from Caleb's eyes)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
No! These people are heathens.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I'm not even thinking about the Grr. Arrgh. guy. The previouslies alone are going to kill me.
I'm still wishing that whoever suggested they just put up a title card saying "Too late now, suckers!" would be right. Alas, probably not.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Do they call it an axe in the comic? or a scythe? Or nothing in particular. Because if Joss is calling it an axe, and these writers a scythe, that is pretty weird.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I like the idea of "Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer: EVERYTHING."

Art Crawl!!!
Wow. I can't believe what they're selling.
I think that they should have given the Vamp!Willow costume to AH. . . or possibly to AD.
